£79k trade value lol dream land imo there is a PCCB car up for £79k at an OPC now. cannot see any normal OPC who DOES know the price bid above £70k on them, you might get list back.



Sorry to sound off but I don't get why the same people get all the cars and they sit unused !

Usual verbal drivel from Demon. Sorry but its true!

Firstly, if I am a flipper, why would I still own my 64 plate GT3? And the GT4 and Spyder?

Secondly, you have no idea about values on the 981 Spyder. Your example quoted at £79990 is of course the cheapest and one of the highest mileage and poverty spec cars in the network, 2 owners as well! No pcm, no extended leather, no heated seats and chav blue striped interior.

As you keep reminding everyone on every thread, spec is all, and this car is no exception.

Most decent spec Spyders are mid to late £80ks which is actually above the GT4 atm although admittedly this will drop into winter and GT4 parity is anticipated...until next Spring!

Like Rich, my Spyder would be a keeper long term even before the GT3 in fact.

Praise indeed!

Try owning one instead of trotting out the usual rhetoric we've heard so many times before! Then you may see why the 981 Spyder is up there with some of Porsches latter day greatest creations.

900 miles - av185 - what on earth happened there - mines done over 8500 !

Yes Rich, my better half preferred the Spyder to hers so shes hogged it for shortish trips but I have done the bulk of the mileage on proper drives! GT4 has just under 4k now but as you know like you I prefer the Spyder......at least when I can get the keys!

Opposite problem : I bought mine for my wife but she hates it as the clutch is too heavy - her loss

I take it she won't drive the GT4 then!

Just been for an early morning blasting mine! Amazing drive as always gotta love the exhaust whip crack and the 15 degree slip angle! Roof off of course

No - she thinks they are all really "silly" (her words) especially the RS - prefers her Fiat 500 - it all works rather well

Did the same - I can't ever see me selling mine - I just love it !

Only thing would be if the new one is NA and is "better" otherwise, I think we'll be together for a very long time

Agreed! I have made enquiries about the next spider, let's see what happens! Cue gratuitous photo opportunity

Ah, thankyou - I have to say it's a looker - best bit though; it drives better than it looks

Mirrors - not going to bite !

Decals on the other hand - they are not bloody wonkey - initial attempt rectified - LOL

Keep well chap

I believe you .........

To be honest Rich I'm sure the new GT3 will be great, but I can't see past the RS at the moment.
